Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom W., Williamsburg Apr 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A perfect location for a vacation. Close to restaurants, souvenir shops and the beach without all the noise. The home was ready for our stay. All basic needs were available (pots, pans, dishes, etc., as well as TP, and TV sets. A little better explanation of how to use the cable set up would be helpful. Yes, we figured it out. The vertical blinds in dining and living room areas were missing several vertical pieces (some were broken and laying on the floor upon our arrival). The lanai in back was welcome, relaxing and peaceful. Overall, a nice place to wind down with easy access to all necessities. Book it! ##### Tom W.
